The full name is the San Juan Bautista Lutheran Church.  I found this mural on Jan. 24, 2018.  It's on the west end of a small building behind the main church.

Tucson Weekly article: Visions of Johanna

Here's a story about Tucson muralist Johanna Martinez: Visions of Johanna: Tucson muralist preserves history's lines.

We have some photos of her murals (almost certainly not all of them) on the blog:

• More on Meyer (May 31, 2009)
• Greetings from Barrio Santa Rosa (January 26, 2015)
• Murals being made, part 29a (first of a series — from July 06, 2015 — about her Buffet Bar mural
• The Talking Mural (Murals being made, part 47a)

I'm hoping to add more of her murals. I'll add links here. If you don't follow this blog regularly, please check back.
